Ex-Congressman Roswell G. Horr. of

sense, got off this golden nugget at the
young republican convention al New York:
If man believes in temperance. it might
be asked. why does he not join the third
party? l will tell you why. First, l would
not join the prohibition party. because
every vote would simply be helping the
democracy. For another reason. | would
not join that party because the democrats
want me to. What they want cone should
he avoided BY those who desire temperance.
There is another reason. in that We have
other issues than temperance The repub-
Iican party relies upon its homes for its
strength. The democratic strength is
measured by the number of saloons.
